"The application of mindfulness to sensations has three, meaning that because coarse breathing is eliminated, body and mind are at ease and secure. (6) Experiencing joy, and (7) experiencing bliss: although there is subtle joy, bliss can suffuse the bodily consciousness; when suffused, the inner mind is joyful, hence it is called 'bliss.' (8) Experiencing mental activities: when bliss is embraced within, there must be mental factors accompanying it, leaning the mind toward the blissful object; hence it is called 'experiencing mental activities.'
